OSU smart membrane could enable new category of high-energy, high-power energy storage for EVs

Green Car Congress

A team at the Ohio State University has developed a membrane that regulates bi-directional ion transport across it as a function of its redox state and that could be used as a programmable smart membrane separator in future supercapacitors and redox flow batteries. —Herya and Sundaresan.

OSU team develops new aqueous lithium-iodine solar flow battery; 20% energy savings over Li-I batteries

Green Car Congress

After debuting the first solar air battery—a photo-assisted charging Li-O 2 battery—last fall ( earlier post ), researchers at The Ohio State University led by Professor Yiying Wu have now developed a new system combining a solar cell and a battery into a single device.

How Multiphysics Simulation Can Analyze Electronics Cooling Problems

Cars That Think

Cellphones, data centers, home electronics, telecommunication, and the electrical grid use electronic components that require thermal management. One solution to this engineering challenge is to use multiphysics simulation software to improve the accuracy of the engineer's calculations in comparison to analytic and single-physics solutions.
